When support for multiple TX queues were added, the
netif_tx_lock() routines we converted to iterate over
all TX queues and grab each queue's spinlock.
This causes heartburn for lockdep and it's not a healthy

So modify this to use a top-level lock and a "frozen"

On s2io driver, when you change the interface MTU, it invokes a card

also set the net_device->stats as the default statistics structure,
instead of s2io_nic->stats.
To do that, s2io_nic->stats turned into a staging area, where is saved
statistics of the last hardware statistics query. So, the difference
between the current hardware statistics and s2io_nic->stats, is the
value that should be summed up, in order to get the correct statistics
value, even after a reset.

Recent changes to the IRQ framework have made passing the wrong
trigger type to request_irq() become a fatal error. In the case
of the enc28j60 driver, it stopped working in my test harness.
(Specifically: the signal detects "pin change" events, both edges,
not just falling edges. Similarly, other boards might route it
through an inverter. Trigger type are board-specific.)
This fixes that problem by the usual fix of expecting board setup
code to have set up the correct IRQ trigger type. The best known

Wireless statistics produced by the RTL8187B driver are not particularly
informative about the strength of the received signal. From the data sheet
provided by Realtek, I discovered that certain parts of the RX header
should have the information necessary to calculate signal quality and
strength. With testing, it became clear that most of these quantities were
very jittery - only the AGC correlated with the signals expected from nearby
AP's. As a result, the quality and strength are derived from the agc value.
The scaling has been determined so that the numbers are close to those
obtained by b43 under the same conditions. The results are qualitatively
correct.
Statistics derived for the RTL8187 have not been changed.
The RX header variables have been renamed to match the quantites described
in the Realtek data sheet.

rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from
mac80211 when the configuration option has changed.
This means it keeps track of the current active configuration
and will check these values when the config() callback function
is used.
However this causes breakage when the interface has been
brought down and up again, since all stored active values
aren't reset while the registers might have.
This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which
will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started.
To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start()
callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked
during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase.

Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS
values used in the legacy driver and the one in
the rt2x00 drivers.
In rt2x00 the value was
( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) )
which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us
This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime
This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value,
and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

When signal is noisy, hardware can use all RX buffers and since the last
entry in the list is self-linked, it overwrites the entry until we link
new buffers.
Ensure that we don't free this last one until we are 100% sure that it
is not used by the hardware anymore to not cause memory curruption as
can be seen below.
This is done by checking next buffer in the list. Even after that we
know that the hardware refetched the new link and proceeded further
(the next buffer is ready) we can finally free the overwritten buffer.
We discard it since the status in its descriptor is overwritten (OR-ed
by new status) too.

If we can be sure that elevating the page_count on a pagecache page will
pin it, we can speculatively run this operation, and subsequently check to
see if we hit the right page rather than relying on holding a lock or
otherwise pinning a reference to the page.
This can be done if get_page/put_page behaves consistently throughout the
whole tree (ie. if we "get" the page after it has been used for something
else, we must be able to free it with a put_page).
Actually, there is a period where the count behaves differently: when the
page is free or if it is a constituent page of a compound page. We need
an atomic_inc_not_zero operation to ensure we don't try to grab the page
in either case.
This patch introduces the core locking protocol to the pagecache (ie.
adds page_cache_get_speculative, and tweaks some update-side code to make
it work).
Thanks to Hugh for pointing out an improvement to the algorithm setting
page_count to zero when we have control of all references, in order to
hold off speculative getters.

Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:
This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).
I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated.
A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.
If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.
The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.
The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.
This patch:
dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.
Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

Enable ibmveth for Cooperative Memory Overcommitment (CMO). For this driver
it means calculating a desired amount of IO memory based on the current MTU
and updating this value with the bus when MTU changes occur. Because DMA
mappings can fail, we have added a bounce buffer for temporary cases where
the driver can not map IO memory for the buffer pool.
The following changes are made to enable the driver for CMO:
* DMA mapping errors will not result in error messages if entitlement has
been exceeded and resources were not available.
* DMA mapping errors are handled gracefully, ibmveth_replenish_buffer_pool()
is corrected to check the return from dma_map_single and fail gracefully.
* The driver will have a get_desired_dma function defined to function
in a CMO environment.
* When the MTU is changed, the driver will update the device IO entitlement

If we hack the virtio_net driver to always allocate full-sized (64k+)
skbuffs, the driver slows down (lguest numbers):
Time to receive 1GB (small buffers): 10.85 seconds
Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers): 24.75 seconds
Of course, large buffers use up more space in the ring, so we increase
that from 128 to 2048:
Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers, 2k ring): 16.61 seconds
If we recycle pages rather than using alloc_page/free_page:
Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers, 2k ring, recycle pages): 10.81 seconds
This demonstrates that with efficient allocation, we don't need to
have a separate "small buffer" queue.

Finally this patch lets virtio_net receive GSO packets in addition

preallocating the maximum amount of pages per skb.

With this, may drop an skb and then later in the function discover that
we could have sent it after all. Poor wee skb :)
How about the incremental patch below?
Cheers,
Mark.
Subject: [PATCH] virtio_net: Delay dropping tx skbs
Currently we drop the skb in start_xmit() if we have a
queued buffer and fail to transmit it.
However, if we delay dropping it until we've stopped the
queue and enabled the tx notification callback, then there
is a chance space might become available for it.

On 32-bit architectures PAGE_ALIGN() truncates 64-bit values to the 32-bit
boundary. For example:
u64 val = PAGE_ALIGN(size);
always returns a value < 4GB even if size is greater than 4GB.
The problem resides in PAGE_MASK definition (from include/asm-x86/page.h for
example):
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (_AC(1,UL) << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
...
#define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) (((addr)+PAGE_SIZE-1)&PAGE_MASK)
The "~" is performed on a 32-bit value, so everything in "and" with
PAGE_MASK greater than 4GB will be truncated to the 32-bit boundary.
Using the ALIGN() macro seems to be the right way, because it uses
typeof(addr) for the mask.
Also move the PAGE_ALIGN() definitions out of include/asm-*/page.h in
include/linux/mm.h.

Although mv643xx_eth has no hardware support for inserting a vlan
tag by twiddling some bits in the TX descriptor, it does support
hardware TX checksumming on packets where the IP header starts {a
limited set of values other than 14} bytes into the packet.
This patch sets mv643xx_eth's ->vlan_features to NETIF_F_SG |
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM, which prevents the stack from checksumming vlan'ed
packets in software, and if vlan tags are present on a transmitted
packet, notifies the hardware of this fact by toggling the right
bits in the TX descriptor.

When there is a link status change (link or phy status interrupt),
print a message notifying the user of the new link status.
Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
The mv643xx_eth hardware has a provision for polling the PHY's
MII management registers to obtain the (R)(G)MII interface speed
(10/100/1000) and duplex (half/full) and pause (off/symmetric)
settings to use to talk to the PHY.
The driver currently does not make use of this feature. Instead,
whenever there is a link status change event, it reads the current
link parameters from the PHY, and programs those parameters into
the mv643xx_eth MAC by hand.
This patch switches the mv643xx_eth driver to letting the MAC
auto-determine the (R)(G)MII link parameters by PHY polling, if there
is a PHY present. For PHYless ports (when e.g. the (R)(G)MII
interface is connected to a hardware switch), we keep hardcoding the
MII interface parameters.

The mv643xx_eth driver is limiting DMA bursts to 32 bytes, while
using the largest burst size (128 bytes) gives a couple percentage
points performance improvement in throughput tests, and the docs
say that the 128 byte default should not need to be changed, so
use 128 byte bursts instead.

The recommended sequence for waiting for the transmit path to clear

The maximum receive packet size field in the Port Serial Control
register controls at what size received packets are flagged
overlength in the receive descriptor, but it doesn't prevent
overlength packets from being DMAd to memory and signaled to the
host like other received packets.
mv643xx_eth does not support receiving jumbo frames in 10/100 mode,
but setting the packet threshold to larger than 1522 bytes in 10/100
mode won't cause breakage by itself.
If we really want to enforce maximum packet size on the receiving
end instead of on the sending end where it should be done, we can
always just add a length check to the software receive handler
instead of relying on the hardware to do the comparison for us.
What's more, changing the maximum packet size field requires
temporarily disabling the RX/TX paths. So once the link comes
up in 10/100 Mb/s mode or 1000 Mb/s mode, we'd have to disable it
again just to set the right maximum packet size field (1522 in
10/100 Mb/s mode or 9700 in 1000 Mb/s mode), just so that we can
offload one comparison operation to hardware that we might as well
do in software, assuming that we'd want to do it at all.
Contrary to what the documentation suggests, there is no harm in
just setting a 9700 byte maximum packet size in 10/100 mode, so use
the maximum maximum packet size for all modes.

The mv643xx_eth driver allows doing transmit reclaim from within the
napi poll routine, but after doing reclaim, it would forget to check
the free transmit descriptor count and wake up the transmit queue if
the reclaim caused enough descriptors for a new packet to become
available. This would cause the netdev watchdog to occasionally kick
in during certain workloads with combined receive and transmit traffic.
Fix this by adding a wakeup check identical to the one in the
interrupt handler to the napi poll routine.

data, transmit DMA can stop before all queued transmit descriptors
have been processed. But even the descriptors that _have_ been
processed might not be properly marked as done before the transmit
DMA unit shuts down.
Then when the link comes up again, the hardware transmit pointer
might have advanced while not all previous packet descriptors have
been marked as transmitted, causing software transmit reclaim to
hang waiting for the hardware to finish transmitting a descriptor
that it has already skipped.
This patch forcibly reclaims all packets on the transmit ring on a
link down interrupt, and then resyncs the hardware transmit pointer to
what the software's idea of the first free descriptor is. Also, we
need to prevent re-waking the transmit queue if we get a 'transmit
done' interrupt at the same time as a 'link down' interrupt, which
this patch does as well.

The previously merged TX hang erratum workaround ("mv643xx_eth:
work around TX hang hardware issue") assumes that TX_END interrupts
are delivered simultaneously with or after their corresponding TX
interrupts, but this is not always true in practise.
In particular, it appears that TX_END interrupts are issued as soon
as descriptor fetch returns an invalid descriptor, which may happen
before earlier descriptors have been fully transmitted and written
back to memory as being done.
This hardware behavior can lead to a situation where the current
driver code mistakenly assumes that the MAC has given up transmitting
before noticing the packets that it is in fact still currently working
on, causing the driver to re-kick the transmit queue, which will only
cause the MAC to re-fetch the invalid head descriptor, and generate
another TX_END interrupt, et cetera, until the packets in the pipe
finally finish transmitting and have their descriptors written back
to memory, which will then finally break the loop.
Fix this by having the erratum workaround not check the 'number of
unfinished descriptor', but instead, to compare the software's idea
of what the head descriptor pointer should be to the hardware's head
descriptor pointer (which is updated on the same conditions as the
TX_END interupt is generated on, i.e. possibly before all previous
descriptors have been transmitted and written back).

Evgeniy Polyakov noticed that drivers/net/e1000e/netdev.c:e1000_netpoll()
was calling e1000_clean_tx_irq() without taking the TX lock.
David Miller suggested to remove the call altogether: since in this
callpah there's periodic calls to ->poll() anyway which will do
e1000_clean_tx_irq() and will garbage-collect any finished TX ring
descriptors.
This fix solved the e1000e+netconsole crashes i've been seeing:

If an mlx4 device with default FW (which gives a UAR BAR size of 8 MB)
is used in a system with 64 KB pages, then there are only 8192/64==128
UAR pages available. However, the first 128 UAR pages are reserved
for use with event queue doorbells, so no UAR pages are available to
do anything else with, which means that the driver cannot work.
The current driver fails with a fairly cryptic "Failed to allocate
driver access region, aborting" message in this situation. Fix the
driver to detect the problem earlier and print out a clearer
description of the problem and a suggestion of how to fix it (use a

MTT entries are allocated with a buddy allocator, which just keeps
bitmaps for each level of the buddy table. However, all free space
starts out at the highest order, and small allocations start scanning
from the lowest order. When the lowest order tables have no free
space, this can lead to scanning potentially millions of bits before
finding a free entry at a higher order.
We can avoid this by just keeping a count of how many free entries
each order has, and skipping the bitmap scan when an order is
completely empty. This provides a nice performance boost for a
negligible increase in memory usage.

I was looking at this out of interest, but I'm in no way familiar with
the code.
Looks to me that the error handling code in mac80211_hwsim is awkward.
Which leads to it calling ieee80211_unregister_hw even when
ieee80211_register_hw failed.
The function has a for loop where it generates all simulated radios.
when something fails, the error handling will call mac80211_hwsim_free
which frees all simulated radios who's pointer isn't zero. However the
information stored is insufficient to determine whether or not the call
to ieee80211_register_hw succeeded or not for a specific radio. The
included patch makes init_mac80211_hwsim clean up the current simulated
radio, and then calls into mac80211_hwsim_free to clean up all the
radios that did succeed.
This however doesn't explain why the rate control registration failed..
build tested this, but had some problems reproducing the original
problem.

The magic write to register 0x82 will often cause PCI config space on
my 8168 (PCI ID 10ec:8168, revision 2. mounted in an LG P300 laptop)
to be filled with ones during driver load, and thus breaking NIC

can easily be reproduced by unloading and loading the driver a few

This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking
and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures.
Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes. The interfaces they use such
as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero.
So everything "just works" for them.
Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a
routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(),
netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc.
pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others.
In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely
improved. The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the
wrong queue, which is mostly harmless. The thing to do is probably to
invoke fill_packet() earlier.
The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on
the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping.
Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of
net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx(). If we end up needing any kind of
special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here.
Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver
indicates how many TX queues are actually active.

alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue
structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument.
Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored
through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue()
interfaces. This makes it easy to grep the tree for all
things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device.
Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and
only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping
for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.

The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group. A return of NULL signifies an error. Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.
Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail. This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values. These errors are
bubbled up appropriately. NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.

There was a bug in some versions of the mlx4 driver in
mlx4_alloc_fmr(), which hardcoded the minimum acceptable page_shift to
be 12. However, new ConnectX firmware can support a minimum
page_shift of 9 (log_pg_sz of 9 returned by QUERY_DEV_LIM) -- so with
old drivers, ib_fmr_alloc() would fail for ULPs using the device
minimum when creating FMRs.
To preserve firmware compatibility with released mlx4 drivers, the
firmware will continue to return 12 as before for log_page_sz in
QUERY_DEV_CAP for these drivers. However, to enable new drivers to
take advantage of the available smaller page size, the mlx4 driver now
first sets the log_pg_sz to the device minimum by setting a
log_page_sz value to 0 via the MOD_STAT_CFG command and then reading
the real minimum via QUERY_DEV_CAP.

Handling the zero STag in receive work request requires some extra
logic in the driver:
- Only set the QP_PRIV bit for kernel mode QPs.
- Add a zero STag build function for recv wrs. The uP needs a PBL
allocated and passed down in the recv WR so it can construct a HW
PBL for the zero STag S/G entries. Note: we need to place a few
restrictions on zero STag usage because of this:
1) all SGEs in a recv WR must either be zero STag or not. No mixing.
2) an individual SGE length cannot exceed 128MB for a zero-stag SGE.
This should be OK since it's not really practical to allocate
such a large chunk of pinned contiguous DMA mapped memory.
- Add an optimized non-zero-STag recv wr format for kernel users.
This is needed to optimize both zero and non-zero STag cracking in
the recv path for kernel users.

Please see the following thread to get some context on this
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=121564433018903&w=2
Basically the issue is that current multi-cast filtering stuff in
the TUN/TAP driver is seriously broken.
Original patch went in without proper review and ACK. It was broken and
confusing to start with and subsequent patches broke it completely.
To give you an idea of what's broken here are some of the issues:
- Very confusing comments throughout the code that imply that the
character device is a network interface in its own right, and that packets
are passed between the two nics. Which is completely wrong.
- Wrong set of ioctls is used for setting up filters. They look like
shortcuts for manipulating state of the tun/tap network interface but
in reality manipulate the state of the TX filter.
- ioctls that were originally used for setting address of the the TX filter
got "fixed" and now set the address of the network interface itself. Which
made filter totaly useless.
- Filtering is done too late. Instead of filtering early on, to avoid
unnecessary wakeups, filtering is done in the read() call.
The list goes on and on :)
So the patch cleans all that up. It introduces simple and clean interface for
setting up TX filters (TUNSETTXFILTER + tun_filter spec) and does filtering
before enqueuing the packets.
TX filtering is useful in the scenarios where TAP is part of a bridge, in
which case it gets all broadcast, multicast and potentially other packets when
the bridge is learning. So for example Ethernet tunnelling app may want to
setup TX filters to avoid tunnelling multicast traffic. QEMU and other
hypervisors can push RX filtering that is currently done in the guest into the
host context therefore saving wakeups and unnecessary data transfer.
